The Giant Knife 1.0
It takes the right tool for the job. If the Giant Knife turns out to be the tool for your job, we in the UID group really don’t know what kind of line of work you are involved in. Nor are we sure we really want to know.
This 85-tool knife apparently contains every tool the company makes. But you are unlikely to be able to fit this in your pocket unless you are a kangaroo or wear giant overalls - it measures 8.5″ wide and a little over 2 pounds 11 ounces. Read about it here.
This knife immediately prompted a discussion among the UI research nerds in our group about similar uber tools for HCI researchers, software engineers, social scientists and usability engineers. If you had to design the ultimate weapon for our professions what would it contain?
